LTC4059/LTC4059A
900mA Linear Li-Ion
Battery Chargers with
Thermal Regulation in 2
×
2 DFN
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC
®
4059/LTC4059A are constant-current/constant-
voltage linear chargers for single cell lithium-ion batteries.
Their 2mm
×
2mm DFN package and low external compo-
nent count make these chargers especially well suited for
portable applications. Furthermore, they are designed to
work within USB power specifications.
No external sense resistor, MOSFET or blocking diode is
required. Thermal feedback regulates the charge current
to limit the die temperature during high power operation or
high ambient thermal conditions. The charge voltage is
fixed at 4.2V and the charge current is programmable.
When the input supply (wall adapter or USB supply) is
removed, the LTC4059/LTC4059A automatically enter a low
current state, dropping the battery current drain to less than
1µA. With power applied, they can be put into shutdown
mode, reducing the supply current to 10µA.
The LTC4059A features an open-drain status pin to indi-
cate the presence of an input voltage. The LTC4059 can be
used as a constant-current source to charge Nickel cells.
Other features include undervoltage lockout protection
and a current monitor pin which can indicate when to
terminate a charge cycle.
The LTC4059/LTC4059A are available in a 6-lead, low
profile (0.75mm) 2mm
×
2mm DFN package.

Note 1:
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the life
of a device may be impaired.
Note 2:
The LTC4059E/LTC4059AE are guaranteed to meet performance
specifications from 0°C to 70°C. Specifications over the –40°C to 85°C
operating temperature range are assured by design, characterization and
correlation with statistical process controls.
Note 3:
Failure to solder the exposed backside of the package to the PC
board ground plane will result in a thermal resistance much higher than
60°C/W.
Note 4:
The FET on-resistance is guaranteed by correlation to wafer level
measurements.

LTC4059/LTC4059A
PI FU CTIO S
GND (Pins 1, 7):
Ground/Exposed Pad. The exposed
package pad is ground and must be soldered to the PC
board for maximum heat transfer.
Li CC (Pin 2, LTC4059):
Li-Ion/Constant Current Input
Pin. Pulling this pin above V
Li CC
disables voltage mode
thereby providing a constant current to the BAT pin. This
feature is useful for charging Nickel chemistry batteries.
Tie to GND if unused.
ACPR (Pin 2, LTC4059A):
Open-Drain Power Supply
Status Output. When V
CC
is greater than the undervoltage
lockout threshold, the ACPR pin will pull to ground;
otherwise the pin is forced to a high impedance state.
BAT (Pin 3):
Charge Current Output. Provides charge
current to the battery and regulates the final float voltage
to 4.2V. An internal precision resistor divider from this pin
sets this float voltage and is disconnected in shutdown
mode.
V
CC
(Pin 4):
Positive Input Supply Voltage. This pin
provides power to the charger. V
CC
can range from 3.75V
to 8V. This pin should be bypassed with at least a 1µF
capacitor. When V
CC
is within 35mV of the BAT pin
voltage, the LTC4059 enters shutdown mode, dropping
I
BAT
to less than 4µA.
PROG (Pin 5):
Charge Current Program and Charge Cur-
rent Monitor Pin. Connecting a resistor, R
PROG
, to ground
programs the charge current. When charging in constant-
current mode, this pin servos to 1.21V. In all modes, the
voltage on this pin can be used to measure the charge
current using the following formula:
U

=
V
PROG
• 1000
R
PROG
EN (Pin 6):
Enable Input Pin. Pulling this pin above the
manual shutdown threshold (V
MS
is typically 0.92V) puts
the LTC4059 in shutdown mode, thus terminating a charge
cycle. In shutdown mode, the LTC4059 has less than 25µA
supply current and less than 1µA battery drain current.
Enable is the default state, but the pin should be tied to
GND if unused.
